"Then let me ask you, why did you appear in Nanman?"
The lightning flashed in Lu Zhong's hand, and he said expressionlessly: "Tell me the whole story! I advise you to speak carefully before speaking, otherwise I won't mind causing you to suffer some more!"
"This..." Haili felt uneasy.
His soul was severely injured, and now he has been reduced to a chopping block.
Not daring to hide anything, he quickly told everything about how he fought for the "Perfect Demonic Pill Alchemy" and was hunted down to the Southern Barbarians.
"Oh? The magic pill refining technique over the East China Sea has not been perfected yet?" Lu Zhong said in surprise.
"How can things be so easy? This matter involves the transformation of spiritual energy, and the demon spiritual energy needs to be restored to the original state of spiritual energy, so the East China Sea cultivation world has not yet perfected it." Haili said with a "wry smile".
"In that case, give me a copy of this alchemy technique and the Nanman sea chart."
Soon a copy of the demon pill alchemy was obtained, but when it was Haitu's turn, Haili hesitated and said nothing for a long time.
"Fellow Daoist, it's not that I don't give you the sea chart, it's just that this chart..." Haili hesitated for a moment, and seeing Lu Zhong's face getting colder, he immediately explained: "Actually, only the captain knows. I'm just escaping by boat, how could I know? Detailed chart?”
Hearing what he said, Lu Zhong was sure that he would not be disappointed.
"If that's the case, then it's useless for me to keep you..."
"No, no, no!" Haili interrupted hastily.
He could see that Lu Zhong really wanted to kill him.
After finally forming the elixir, Haili didn't want to die yet, so he hurriedly said: "I don't know the route we took when we came here, but it is definitely an open route, otherwise my enemies below would not be able to pursue them. I know a secret route. However, there is some incomplete information along the way, so fellow Taoists need to be mentally prepared.”
Then, he told Lu Zhong the information about the secret route without any concealment.
The distance from Nanman to the East China Sea is tens of thousands of miles.
The route involves sea tides, how to identify the direction and direction by stargazing, how to reach supply points along the way, and the threats that may be encountered on the way, all of which are very complicated.
Haili learned about this chart from a Nanman monk.
The other party was once a member of the exploration ship. He set off from Nanman and endured a narrow escape before reaching the East China Sea.
Because this person unfortunately lost part of his memory when he experienced life and death, and could only remember most of the later memories. As for when he set off from Changchun Fairy City, the memories of those few months could not be recovered.
"Even so, this chart is still very precious." Haili said.
"Really? I once heard a saying that the easiest lie to deceive people in the world is the truth and the lie. The information you just told is 70% true and 30% false? Or is it 90% true and 1% false?" Lu Zhong stared at Hai Li's golden elixir and said with a cold expression.
The other party wanted to seize the body first, so he didn't believe a word of Haili's words.
I thought that this person would have a navigational chart in his storage bag, but I never thought that he was just escaping by boat.
"Boom boom boom!"
Lu Zhong fired three palm thunders in succession, smashing the golden elixir into pieces.
The other party wanted to take him away before, so it was impossible to save his life, but the killing was no more than a nod, and he did not torture the other party, so the two sides were even.
Without the parasitism of the soul, the golden elixir immediately began to collapse and turned into wisps of pure spiritual energy, which dissipated in the world after a while.
There is a piece of gauze in place, almost transparent, as if it is nothing to the touch.
"Is this the protective gear of spiritual consciousness?" Lu Zhong said in surprise.
Just now, he failed to kill the opponent's soul with one strike. He had already guessed in his heart that Haili's soul must be protected by a spiritual protective gear, and now he had indeed obtained such a treasure.
Unfortunately, there is already a small hole in it due to being attacked by the Jingshen Thorn.
"When we get back, we'll find out how to fix it."
With this thought in his mind, Lu Zhong simply refined the gauze in his hand and knew the name of this thing.
Cage Shensha.
Its function is not only to resist the damage of the spiritual consciousness and secret arts, but also to warm and nourish the soul. Although it cannot make the soul stronger, it can eliminate the accumulated fatigue.
"Yes, it's a good baby!"
Lu Zhong had a thought and put it into the sea of consciousness. Sure enough, his soul felt a warmth, as comfortable as soaking in hot water.
Turning his eyes towards Haili's body, he did not touch it rashly.
Instead, close your eyes and simulate it in the gray fog space.
Opening his eyes, Lu Zhong felt lucky that the other party was really vicious enough. He actually poisoned himself. If he was not prepared to touch him, his whole body would be paralyzed.
At that time, Haili will take advantage of the situation and initiate a seizure.
If this really happens, it can be said that he has no chance of winning.
"Fortunately, I have gray mist space." Lu Zhong couldn't help but feel lucky again. He immediately took out dozens of cleaning charms and threw them all on the body to remove the toxins on the surface.
After doing this, I took the photo of the storage bag.
It is another storage bag with a capacity of 100 square meters.
Lu Zhong had also gotten such a large storage bag from Madam Butterfly before, but her Bai Fang storage bag was too conspicuous and could not be used openly.
"Just right to keep it for yourself!"
He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and with strong expectation, he put his consciousness into the bag and began to carefully examine the contents.
The first thing that caught the eye was the mountain of spiritual stones.
No more, no less, just fifty thousand low-grade spiritual stones.
Opening a small wooden box, there were five large cobbled spirit stones lying quietly inside. They were emitting strong spiritual energy fluctuations at the moment. It was impressive that all five of them were top-grade spirit stones.
"There are 100,000 light spirit stones. You are truly worthy of being a pill-forming monk!"
Previously, Lu Zhong had been worried that he didn't have enough spiritual stones to collect the elixir.
Now that I have so many spiritual stones, I won’t have to worry about it for a while!
Continuing his inventory, he found a wordless page.
The material is the same as the half piece obtained earlier, except that this one is intact.
After studying for a while, Lu Zhong couldn't figure out the purpose of this thing, so he had to put it in his storage bag.
Thirty-seven bottles of elixirs, most of the names on the bottles were names he had never heard of, but since they were taken away by Master Jindan, he thought they would not be rubbish.
If you go back and let the appraiser appraise it, you will be able to figure out the value of these elixirs.
The three ingots of iron essence are all raw materials for refining magic weapons and can be kept to refine the natal magic weapon later.
A book of "Shui Jade Skills" is a high-end product that can be practiced to the late stage of elixir formation. Considering that Yu Feng'er has the dual spiritual roots of water and wood, Lu Zhong is planning to sell this book of skills to the Yu family.
Presumably the Yu family would be very happy to acquire it.
In addition, there are eleven pieces of medium-to-high-grade ritual instruments and two medium-grade robes.
The rest is just junk and of little value.
All in all, this storage bag is quite fat.
"It's a pity that this Haili didn't refine the magic weapon of his life, otherwise the harvest would be even greater!" Lu Zhong couldn't help laughing when he thought of this. Everyone knows that people are not enough, and he himself is a little greedy.
Regarding the sea-going ship, Lu Zhong planned to lease it to the Chengde Chamber of Commerce first.
As for the Chamber of Commerce, there has been a demand for shipping recently, and many of them may need to be transported to offshore commercial ports to be delivered to the Chamber of Commerce that specializes in running the East China Sea route. In the past, ships from other chambers of commerce were hired, and each transportation cost a large sum of money. Fore spirit stone.
As the saying goes, "Don't let the rich water flow to outsiders' fields." Lu Zhong felt that it would be better to swallow this spiritual stone himself.
After cleaning the scene, the body was directly burned to ashes, and some necessary changes were made to the cracked formation. They also forgot to secure the ship to prevent it from being carried away by the tide.
After doing this, Lu Zhong began to refine the grass spirit creation fluid.
…
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
On this day, a sea ship arrived at Changchun Port.
There were many sailors basking in the sun at the port, and they all looked strange when they saw the ship.
"Strange, why is the ship coming at this time?"
"It's the middle of the year now. It's really crazy to sail against the tide!"
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a lucky ship built for ocean routes.
According to the sailing rules of sea ships, they all arrive at Changchun Port at the end of the year.
It's always been like this, without exception.
During the tide period, it sweeps from east to west.
The ship arrived in the middle of the year, which meant that it was attacked by sea beasts along the way. In this dangerous environment, even if there was a real Jindan escort, it would be a narrow escape, so some sailors said that the ship owner was crazy.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder what kind of goods were on the ship and which chamber of commerce received the goods.
"The chamber of commerce that receives the goods is here."
"Chengde Chamber of Commerce, is this a small chamber of commerce, right?"
Seeing that it was the Chengde Chamber of Commerce, the crowd of people watching on the pier immediately became commotion.
A mere small chamber of commerce actually has such strength?
the other side.
When Yu Feng'er saw Lu Zhong, her beautiful eyes were still full of surprise. When she received the news from Lu Zhong that he had picked up a sea ship, she couldn't believe it at all.
The value of a sea-going ship is hundreds of thousands, which is tantamount to picking up a golden elixir.
"President, the port officer has completed the inspection and said that the ship's license will be issued in a few days." A steward hurried over and reported to Yu Feng'erhui.
"It's actually true!" Yu Feng'er still couldn't believe it.
But since the port officer has confirmed it, this ship was really picked up.
Once the ship's license is obtained, the ship becomes Lu Zhong's personal property.
After temporarily parking the boat in the berth, the two returned to Lintao Pavilion.
We haven’t seen each other for half a year. A long absence is better than a newlywed.
The two lingered for a long time.
Afterwards, Yu Feng'er snuggled in Lu Zhong's arms, feeling the familiar body temperature, the flush on her face had not faded, and she suddenly burst out laughing.
"What's wrong?" Lu Zhong looked confused.
"Husband, haven't you noticed the changes in my body?" Yu Feng'er hugged Lu Zhong and deliberately aroused her breath.
"Oh, it's already the middle stage of foundation building!" Lu Zhong discovered that Yu Feng'er had already broken through to the middle stage of foundation building. No wonder it didn't finish for a long time. He couldn't help but smile and said: "It's really a double happiness. It seems that we are not only Now I can be a foundation-building Taoist priest, and in the future I can be a pill-forming Taoist priest that will envy others!"
"Hehe, I will work hard!"
They stayed in the room for half a month before they came out.
After sending Yu Feng'er away, Lu Zhong touched his sore waist and wondered if he should eat something to make up for it. After thinking about it carefully, he decided to forget it, so as not to let outsiders think that he was not good enough.
Turn around and walk towards the quiet room.
During this trip to Ganquan Island, he successfully refined the Cao Ling Creation Liquid. Although the quantity was not as expected, it would be enough to last until the end of this year's tide period.
Sit cross-legged on the futon and adjust your breath.
He drank a portion of the creation liquid, and pure spiritual energy immediately spread out.
The refining was completed soon.
Closing his eyes, Lu Zhong savored the difference between the creation fluid and the elixir.
Compared with the grass spirit elixir, the effect of the grass spirit creation fluid in increasing one's cultivation level is slightly less, and can only reach 90% of that of the elixir.
The cost of a portion of Grass Spirit Creation Liquid is twice as much as that of Grass Spirit Pill.
It can be said that taking the creation liquid to improve one's cultivation level is equivalent to burning spiritual stones.
"In order to improve your cultivation quickly, it is worth burning more spirit stones!" Lu Zhong thought in his heart, this is better than not being able to buy enough elixirs and practicing as slowly as a tortoise.
He is a monk with four spiritual roots. If he wants to break through the limitations of qualifications and form pills, he has to work harder than ordinary people.
Without any further hesitation, he took another portion of the Creation Liquid.
…
In the following days, Lu Zhong basically spent time in seclusion.
Occasionally, I would go out of seclusion, either to receive the elixirs collected from the Chamber of Commerce, or to have a warm relationship with Yu Feng'er, so that I could not only eliminate the anger, but also gain the happiness of dual cultivation.
This has been the case for three consecutive years.
Thanks to the continuous supply of Grass Spirit Creation Liquid, his cultivation finally no longer stagnated. Although the growth rate was not as good as in the early and middle stages of foundation building, it was still more than a star and a half faster than the previous appallingly slow rate.
It's just that new problems will appear soon.
This was discovered by Yu Feng'er during dual cultivation.
After her reminder, Lu Zhongcai was shocked to realize that his true energy had become mottled and impure, and the change was very small. If it weren't for the outsider's body shape, it would be difficult to detect it. It had become much lighter from the original star blue.
Sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, his whole body is covered with golden flames, and he is calcining the true essence with the golden yang insect fire, hoping to remove the impurities in the true essence.
But what he never expected was that the effect of forging the spiritual fire was almost non-existent.
"How could this be?" Lu Zhongru fell into the ice cellar.
If this problem is not solved, even if he really reaches the fake elixir realm, he will not be able to reach the elixir condensation stage. The true energy will be mottled and impure, which will lead to the inability to complete the elixir condensation stage, let alone survive the three nine heavenly tribulations. Even if you are lucky enough to condense the golden elixir, it will be shattered by the thunder.
"I knew it wouldn't be that simple!"
Lu Zhong felt sad in his heart. He finally saw a glimmer of hope, but now he was hit on the head and his head was bleeding.
Take a deep breath and calm yourself down.
"The current plan is to either practice the second level of Nongyan Jue and rely on exercises to solve the problem, or to find a powerful Yang fire to replace the Jin Yang insect fire. The ineffectiveness of the spirit forging may be due to insufficient firepower. So, try another The powerful Yang Fire might be able to solve it, and the other thing is to let the Golden Yang Insect Fire continue to upgrade, maybe it will transform again and it can regain its role in forging spirits."
None of the three solutions were easy to achieve, so Lu Zhong decided to proceed at the same time.
While comprehending the art of making flames, he entrusted the Chamber of Commerce to collect relevant information about Yang Fire, and also purchased nutrients that could be swallowed by Jin Yang Chong Fire.
It doesn’t matter how many spiritual stones you spend!
After gathering his mood, Lu Zhong opened the door and walked out of the quiet room.
Before the problem of mottled real energy was solved, he was not going to continue taking Tenzin to improve his cultivation. This would only make the problem more difficult.
"Well, it's so difficult to live forever..." Lu Zhong couldn't help but sigh.
There were footsteps approaching from behind, it was Yu Feng'er coming.
She hugged Lu Zhong and comforted her softly: "Husband, don't worry too much, the problem will definitely be solved. On my side, both the chamber of commerce and the family have made collecting sun fire and purchasing flame nutrients their top priority. And a large reward was offered.”
The two hugged each other. Lu Zhong smelled Yu Feng'er's body fragrance and said with a smile: "Didn't you say before that I have been unwilling to arrange time to spend time with you? Now..."
Hearing this, Yu Feng'er's cheeks turned red and hot, and she said with a trembling voice:
"The husband will bully me..."
